Bringing their personalities to the runway were the Miami Dolphin Cheerleaders, styled by Dry de Luxe and Beauty Schools of America, who modeled the lines and brought cheers from the crowd. After the finale walk ended, Nico & Vinz returned to the stage for one last surprise performance to complete the show.
